Project: All Motor

[quickangel93]

Yea guys, just something you wouldnt think i would do. well there is a reason. I have a f22a1 head and f22a6 block. I dont want to throw them out or ship them. so ive decided to build a all motor f22. heres some info. pics will come shortly.

F22A1 Head - 142k - good condition
F22A6 Block - 198k - blown main seal

Head:
Rebuild
Replace seals, valve steam guides
5 Angle Valve Job
Stage 1 Port And Polish
Bisimoto Stage 1 Camshaft
Bisimoto Cam Gear
Powercoated Valve Cover - Black

Block:
Rebuild
Replace Seals
Replace Main and Thrust Bearings
Hyperenuithic Pistons
New Piston Rings
Bore Cylinder Wall

Ignition:
NGK Stock V-Power Plugs
Honda OEM Spark Plug Wires
Honda OEM Distributor Cap and Rotor

Intake:
A6 Intake Manifold
Vibrant Short Ram Intake
Bisimoto Intake Manifold Gasket

Exhaust:
Megan Header
Apexi World Sport Exhaust
Magnaflow Cat


Budget Price: $2,000

btw - just so you know, im going from a boosted car to n/a. i got my reasons. boost is nice, but n/a is reliable and thats what i need now.



p.s. dont mind the sig

5 angle valve job is over kill bro

no its not. if it was up to me, id put it on every cylinder head i do but i dont get paid the time to do it

thanks man. any advice you could give me?

I've got 5 angle on my civic this time around. Very worth it. What compression ratio are you shooting for?

check and make sure your clearances are correct.
use the right break-in oil and assembly lube.
take your time and look over everything like 5 times.

Ya I was gonna say @ least get a bisi level 2 cam in, that cam should work wonders on ur head

im not sure. ill see if i could throw in usdm h22 pistons in it. bore the block out another mm and hopefully they will work. so that would be 8.8.1 compression ratio to 10.1 or higher compression ratio.

stage 2 is a definate

well basicly you have two things that going to make power.... you have to put a lot of money on the cilinder head because lets face it, there is where you will make the most hp.... and you have to raise the compression.... stay away from the h22 pistons lol. why not get the bisi 13:1 pistons. there is a thread here.

Choose to remain stock compression, keeping stock pistons/rods or raise compression. If you raise compression, get stronger bottom end parts (costs more, may raise your budget).

Durability, 5-angle valve job has potential to leak sooner, so I'd stick with a competition 3-angle for better reliability as that is what your goal is. I'd go with Bisimoto stage 2 cam as well, as you pay same in price, but get better performance.

The more aggressive you go on the camshaft and the cylinder headwork, the more you will have to raise compression to compliment the motor for good overall performance, which means significantly more money needed to properly complete this. With a $2000 budget, I would stick to stock bottom end (pistons/rods), concentrate on the headwork 3-angle competition, Bisi stage 2 cam, new seals, engine bearings, etc needed to rebuild, new piston rings on stock pistons, tuneup, etc. You'll also need to save for a dyno tune/engine management system. Trust me $2000 is not as much as you think, just use it wisely.

you can also probably go in with a die grinder and just take the casting off in the ports and blend in the area where the seats are.

2000 gets used up quick so budget carefully.
